I finally pressed the register free button. I had not done any research into available sites but rather lurched into one site that had been flashing at me at various times whilst on the computer.
I had been looking at different photos and reading the odd profile on the site and my needy and despearte side urged me to find out how many of these men would actually be interested in me. It didn’t matter what they looked like I just wanted some reassurance that someone might be interested. I needed a quick fix!
I had given thought to the driving force that may have put these men online and realised that some of them would be opportunistic, some down and out sleaze bags and some predatory. But still at the back of my mind there could and would be some that were the genuine article .
My expectations were realisitic but I had no idea of what I was letting myself in for.
I duly completed my profile, which was the easy part, but choosing a photo to accompany it was another.
I finally settled for one that I thought showed me as a happy, bright, intelligent woman and clicked submit.

Goodness you can tell school has started again. Just before going to sleep last night, my eldest son came out with this question. - do snakes have backbones?
His teacher had asked yesterday and his friend had said no, but my son had said yes. He was then asked by his teacher to prove it and if he could, he would win 5 raffle tickets for the reward system they have.
We duly looked on google to get the proof and printed off the information that confirmed, yes, snakes do have backbones and belong to the vertebrate family.
Well they do say you learn something new every day!
I haven’t been on the blog much this week with the back to school run kicking in. Not because I’ve been physically inert but emotionally I haven’t felt like blogging.
My youngest starts nursery in a couple of weeks and it’s tearing at my heart. It’s probably because she is the last one into the school system and it’s partly due to the fact I have not worked (apart from the temping this year) with her.
She is my shadow and a Klingon and I’m going to miss her being at school even though she will be home before lunchtime.
I have no problems with her teachers, they are all lovely and I know she will blossom under them.
But then you see I am of that breed of moms who actually likes school holidays and having the children close at home.
So getting back into the school run anyway is emotionally wearing for me, but I have the added ‘cry-baby’ stress of little one leaving the nest.
I know it will all work out okay, just got to get over myself! 
Or as my sister eloquently puts it ‘build a bridge and get over it".
